NOTES:

1. If you're truck is a 1973-1977 year model and has the Factory Optional Wiper Delay Module and Switch; You will need to reuse your factory Wiper Switch, Delay Module and Harnessing between these two components.

The switch included in the Painless P/N 10118 Kit is for two speed wipers only.

2. If your vehicle has an existing harness, you will want to retain it for the possible reuse of various Pigtails & Connector housings, particular to your application. If you do not have an existing harness, there is a package of terminals included with the harness that will enable you to make most of the connections needed. Replacement lighting pigtails & sockets can be readily obtained from your local parts distributor.

1.0 INTRODUCTION

Congratulations on purchasing what we at Painless Performance Products believe to be the most up-to-date and easy-to-install automotive wiring harness on the market today. This Painless wire harness is designed to be used in 1967 - 1977 Ford F-Series trucks. This harness is designed for an easy installation, even for persons with no electrical experience.

The proper fuses are pre-installed into the fuse block. All wires to be connected are colorcoded and have their function printed on them to help identify the different circuits during installation. All wire is 600 volt, 257F, TXL. Standard automotive wire is GPT, 300 volt, 176F, with PVC insulation. For fuse specifications and wire color designations, see Section 8.1 and Table 8.1.

This complete Classic Ford Truck wiring system has six major sections:

ENGINE SECTION: Water temperature, oil pressure, tachometer, coil, choke, and a/c compressor clutch.

DRIVERS SIDE SECTION: High beam, low beam, park lights, left turn, horn, wiper washer motor, and proportioning valve

PASSENGER SIDE SECTION: High beam, low beam, park lights, right turn, horn, voltage regulator, starter solenoid, battery feed and alternator.

GAUGE CLUSTER SECTION: '67-'69 gauge cluster harness, '70-'74 gauge cluster pigtail adapter, `75-'77 gauge cluster pigtail adapter,.

UNDER-DASH SECTION: Heater-a/c switch, headlight switch, turn signal switch, glove box hazard switch, radio, tachometer, ignition switch, cigar lighter, dimmer switch, brake switch, heater-a/c resistor, heater blower motor, wiper switch, wiper motor, cargo light switch, cargo light, right and left door jam switches and courtesy lights.

TAIL SECTION: Includes taillights, stoplights, left and right turn signals, backup lights, license plate light, and fuel sending unit.

5.0 PRE-INSTALLATION AND HARNESS ROUTING GUIDELINES

Installation of this wire harness consists mainly of two parts: The physical routing and securing of the wire harness. The connection of the individual circuits to their components.

These two major tasks are not separate steps, but are integrated together. In other words, each section of wires are to be routed and then connected to their components. Route the next section of wires and make those sections connections. The layout of this 1967-1977 Ford F-Series harness will dictate how to physically route the harness in your truck. The breakouts and connections are very close to the original Ford harnesses and will fit just as well, if not better. It's a good idea to document how the original harness was routed as this new one follows most of the same routing. The fitment greatly depends on what extent the installer takes to secure and conceal the harness. Painless offers some general guidelines and routing practices starting in Section 5.2, GENERAL installation instructions in Section 6.0, and precise instructions concerning the electrical connections you will make in Section 7.0. To help you begin thinking through the installation of your wire harness please read the following sections:

5.1 Familiarize yourself with the harness by removing the harness from the box, laying it out on a table or on the floor and locating each of the harness sections in the following list. Whenever a particular harness section is referred to in these instructions it is shown in "all caps": ENGINE SECTION.

ENGINE SECTION DRIVERS SIDE SECTION

PASSENGER SIDE SECTION

GAUGE CLUSTER SECTION

UNDER-DASH SECTION

TAIL SECTION

5.2 Be sure to route the harness around and through open areas inside the car. Inside edges provide protection from hazards and also provide places for tie wraps, clips, and other support.

5.3 Route the harness away from any sharp edges, exhaust pipes, hood, trunk and door hinges.

5.4 Plan where harness supports will be located. Allow enough slack in places where movement could occur (body to frame, frame to engine, etc.)

5.5 At wire ends, don't depend on the terminals to support the harness. The weight of the harness may cause the terminals or the copper wire strands to break.

5.6 Bundle the wires into groups. Use nylon ties, poly split loom, tape or PowerBraid (Painless P/N's 70901(1/4"), 70902(1/2"), 70903(3/4") and 70904(1 1/2").

6.1 General Installation CAUTION: DISCONNECT THE POWER FROM YOUR VEHICLE BY REMOVING THE NEGATIVE (BLACK) BATTERY CABLE FROM THE BATTERY. Note: Be sure to retain Overdrive Transmission wiring and Cruise Control wiring when removing the old harness. Circuits for these accessories are not included in this harness. 6.1.1 Mount the base in the stock fuse block location with two of the self tapping screws from the parts kit. See Figure 6-2 for '67-'72 models or Figure 6-3 for '73-'77 models.
